Brett and Patricia Keller on managing weekly farmers markets vs. planning annual events

This week we're joined by the dynamic duo behind City Gates Events, Brett and Patricia Keller. Since 2012, this husband & wife team has designed and executed high quality festivals that bring communities together, create connections, and encourage commerce. In 2021 they were recruited to take over management of the San Marcos Farmers Market, and though they had nearly a decade of experience pulling off large-scale events, this was a whole new ball game! In this episode Brett & Patricia fill us in on how they wound up working as event planners, what they've learned since adding weekly farmers markets to their roster of events, and what farmers market operators should consider if their thinking about launching an annual event. This week's episode is made possible by support from the InTents Conference.
